Does this affect contraception?

Patient's question:

I am 33 years old this year. Since I have already had two babies, I have been breastfeeding recently. My husband bought condoms, but they seem to have been stored for a long time. So, I would like to consult about whether using condoms that have been stored for a long time can interfere with the effectiveness of breastfeeding.

Doctor's answer:

Condoms have a certain expiration date. If they are expired, there is a possibility that rust may occur again during use, which may affect the effectiveness of breastfeeding. Therefore, if condoms are expired, they may interfere with the effectiveness of breastfeeding. If you are not confident, you can take emergency contraception after the act to correct the situation.
